www.youtube.com/watch?v=viuSQZbhlu0The army halted a short distance away from the Guild. "Arise! Arise soldiers!" Magpie spoke loudly. An aura of power emanating around him. He turned, pointing at the gate. "Just there! Our enemy hudder! Sheer terror gripping tight! Knowing full well what merciless horrors they will suffer, at the swords and spears of 5,000 of the King's warriors! This day! We rescue a world from mysticism and tyranny, and usher in a future brighter than anything we can imagine! By the sweat of our brows! And the strength of our backs! We will be victorious! Bandits! Hoist the colours!"The cheer that erupted shook the forest and the ground. The colours of the first Bandit King were hoisted, for the first time in centuries. A banner, which had since been adopted by Pirates all over Albion. The Jolly Roger. [[Cue Guild shitting themselves.]]

Larry awoke from a long rest, he was awoken by the loud shouts and chants outside. ''What is this,'' Larry said to himself as he sat up on the bed. He launched to the window and saw the army of bandits that could not be seen fully for what the eye could meet.
Larry was half naked with a chainmail pair of trousers and boots, he had a gryphon tattoo across his back. Larry ran downstairs almost tripping over, he ran into the dining hall that was full of people having they're tea. ''Their here,'' Larry exclaimed, out of breath.

"Magpie, was it completely necassary to announce our presence like that?" Selena said, stringing her bow and filling her sack with arrows.

Hawk stood behind Magpie and wondered why he had chosen to adopt the Jolly Roger flag as their own symbol. He could find and hopefully change that detail later, as for now they were writing new pages in history. 'Okay men, break down that door!' ordered Hawk to the vast bandit army. More cheers erupted as a new invention was put to use, he called it 'The Battering Ram'. A large wooden war machine rolled up towards the Guild gates, it was a log from the thickest tree in Albion hooked onto a structure to make it hang from the floor, a giant iron ram head with a fearsome flame erupting in the rams mouth swung at the door at a staggering speed. 'This should break down that door in no time' thought Hawk with a smile as he watched the magnificent machine come to life. [Was the battering ram created before or after this time period? ]

Glenroy walked over beside the battering ram. Heroes and guards were on the walls shooting arrows down at the bandits. "Look a hero!" One of them cried. "Help us!" Glenroy slung up his crossbow and took a guards head of with one shot.

Larry ducked and dived as the arrows blasted through the windows and took out the small amount of defense that there was of the guild. Larry took one look at the door which was slowly being smashed from the outside. Some guards and a small amount of heroes gathered round the door to get ready for the inevitable. ''This is it, sacrifice yourself for the will of the guild, take on all that you can while you can!''
The doors teared open, the screams and shouts of the bandits was more intimidating than the bandits themselves.

Selena rushed down the small hill, nocking an arrow as she ran towards the now destroyed gate.
She took the first shot she had, sending an arrow into a guards stomach. The bandits were rushing in, meeting a small but powerful group of heroes, apprentices, and guards.

Magpie grabbed Selena before she could go any further, he indicated up to the Guildmasters office, where Ravyn would be. "You know what to do." Magpie said.

"..." Selena said nothing, but nodded.
She walked off, heading to the guild masters office.
[[She'll be pissed if she comes back]]

Larry noticed Selena walking towards the guild master's office. ''Hey!! where do you think your going!'' Larry shouted as he jumped in front of Selena, his blood stained cleaver drawn, but was soon hit hard into the left shoulder by an arrow sending him spinning to the side.

"Get out of my way, before I chop you to bits.". Selena growled, putting away her bow and drawing her halbard.

Larry dropped his cleaver and knelt on the floor in pain, the wound was deep and the arrow stuck out awkwardly. Larry gripped the arrow and ripped it out of his wound. ''Have a free arrow,'' larry croaked as he jabbed the arrow head into Selena's leg.

Selena fell to one knee, dropping her halbard. "You bastard... I'll be back for you..." She said before hamstringing Larry and limping off, supporting herself with her halbard.

Hawk stood in the centre of the fight whilst tearing down as many people as possible with his two giant swords slicing through flesh and bone.
In all honesty Hawk felt sorry for the Guild as they did not have enough people to defend it and his bandits were still pushing through the broken gates. But it was the best chance they would ever have at finally overrunning the place.
Seeing Selena head towards the Guildmasters office Hawk had to go and help, pushing past the fearsome war cries of the bandits and the occasional screams from the Guild apprentices he arrived at the stairs. Selena had already run up. 'Bandits! Remember that you are the ones who finally destroyed the Guild, keep pushing!' yelled Hawk from the bottom of the staircase, taking a mighty swing Hawk walloped a guard in the face with the hilt on his sword and then headed upwards.

Post by Maxi Muay on Jul 22, 2009 20:25:49 GMT 1
Maxi was sheltered from the raid as he was sitting inside a very small tower block with the door bolted closed. 'Damn bandits. I can't go down without fighting' said Maxi out loud as rage flowed through his toned body. Heaving the lock lose Maxi charged out and was immediately surrounded by hundreds of bandits, they were very high up and Maxi had no weapons to fight with. There was nothing for it, Maxi leaped off the high ledge and and grasped a chain that was hanging from the stone roof. The chain was long but not strong enough to hold his weight, Maxi came crashing down and landed on several bandits below.
Quickly leaping to his feet Maxi weaved the chain around his right arm and swung it in circular motions with his left, anybody who got hit by the chain fell to the floor in agony. The room was so packed the bandits had no chance of attack, in no time at all Maxi had created a circle of bandits with him in the center whipping the chain to and fro to stop them advancing on him.
Although Maxi was a highly trained martial artist he knew in his heart that he would not be able to survive the whole fight on his own.

Larry was in so much pain and he had to get away soon to recover. He saw a large figure running up the stairs, Larry managed to find a small hole with a shadow covering over, he rolled into it hardly unnoticed. A small shirt was stuffed in the hole, Larry ripped it making it into a bandage for his wound.

Violet was standing before a group of young Mage Apprentices. She had taken the liberty of teaching the young Heroes magic and how to control it. "Here is a simple one, its a Freeze Spell." Violet said pulling her wand out of its holster. "Free-" There was a screaming and a loud bang.
Bandits were breaking into the Guild. The Guards were failing. The Hero of Will grabbed her staff from resting on a nearby tree. "I want all the younger Apprentices to flee. Go into the Woods or off to some nearby village. Everyone else follow me."
Young Heroes all followed directions. Some ran off and other went around preparing themselves. Other Heroes and Apprentices joined in following behind. "We must defend this Guild! It is a place were Heroes can help others and a home to some. If you see any Bandits, fight them. Send them home damage as much as you can! If you need to kill, go ahead and do so." Violet shouted.
Her wand was back in her holster and head staff in hand ready to fight. Both of her iron Daggers were on each of her hips ready. A thought came to the Heroes head. Last time the Bandits attack, they went to kill the Guildmaster. That must we what there plan is again!
Violet moved away from the group and ran for the Guildmaster's office. Her robes flowed behind her. Once reaching the office there was a hero named Larry and the Hero of Skill Selena fighting him. At the staircase was the Bandit King Hawk heading up there. She paused.
Selena was a person she recently met and a friend of Griffs. She also knew Hawk by Griff. Violet thought for a brief second and sighed. She thrusted her palm towards Hawk sending a Force Push at him hoping to knock him down the stairs. She turned to Selena and waved her hand. Ghost Swords flew at her.
"Selena, Hawk! Please don't do this! Why must you raid us? Never has the Guild went out and tried to destroy your home."

Larry managed to get up from the floor. He picked up his cleaver and looked around the room slightly confused to what was going on. Larry faced Violet with a hint of relief on his face. ''They are bandits, leave them! they are no longer human but mindless souls. Now we must get who we can and leave, i can't stand another minute listening to the screams of young apprentices dying. We have no chance, and i am a man of optimism!''
